I got this smush of Autumn Ash from u/J33pGuy13. First time with this scent. Can'y say I'm wow'd by it or anything, but I don't dislike it. The scent wasn't as strong as other SW soaps I've tried and I'm grateful the birch tar wasn't overpowering.

I wasn't quite sure what I had that would pair well it for a post shave. After a few side by side sniff tests, one thing that stuck out to me was the Cedar. I immediately thought of Firefighter. I like how the pair works together. Firefighter took a little of the dankness out of it and added in some freshness with the aquatic and Grapefruit notes. Nice shave overall this morning.

I completely forgot to take a picture of my stubble. 4am shave and I am only barely functioning.
